The Watchmen discussing the

deepest and proioundcst feelings, say
the loiticst, and purest, aud ireost

A Georgia Snake.

Atlanta Constitution.
/. Mr.. Coleman Firemon. the Roswell rail-

discovered on the plantation of Mr.. John South
ern living near Dunwody Mrs. Southern as
cended the loft OF the barn for purpose,
and when she started to descend discovered his
snakesnip, which was horrible sight to behold.
Sne had TO pass by this huge reptile in order to
get down; how she succeeded she unable to
say, under the frightened circumstances, but a
soon she could collect her wits called to Mr..
Southern to step upon the ladder and see the
snake. The sight which met his gaze caused
him to fall back in horror stricken condition;
he managed TO compose himself and grabbed
hoe and dealt him two ticks with all the power
he possessed. which only made the snake move
to hide himself. When first discovered he was
coile6 and. MIR. S. says at low estimate his
size was fully as large bushel basket. He
saws he will endeavor to capture him in order to
exhibit him at the Piedmont fair 1t is thought

OUTLINE OF THOUGHT.
l. The prayer of faith
Q. Faith commended.
s. Faith answered.
Luke has recorded this same miracle ii. 1-10),
and has given some facts that are not recorded
by Matthew. The two accounts are not difficult
to harmonize Capernaum was city of impor-
tance-a port for collecting revenue, the abode OF
a Roman garrison. the home of several OF the
disciples and the abode of the Master himself.
Christ naturally returns here after the sermon
on the Mount.
l. Privilege is nothing if not i'm proved.
Capernaum was our Lords home; many of his
richest sayings were spoken and many wonder
fu, works were wrought there. Capernaum was
moved by neither, and was lost.
2. Christ always accessible. The centurian
would have been as welcome as his Jewish en-
bassadors And miracle was wrought for him
as cheerfully as it would have been for Nicode-
mus.
Christ and truly magnanimous SOUL The
enemies of Christ have always been narrow
souls, to whom his greatness only con-
slant rebuke. And great souls in all time who
have learned of him have lnstinctivey affiliated
with him.
4. Christ has quick for trouble, and he
Is ready to respond as he is quick to hear.
When the stated. forthwith came the
answer: II will come and heal him."
s. Christ's ability is sufficient for all things.
The word of healing spoken. and the self
same hour the man healed It was not de-
pendent upon material conditions He did not

it known, the centurion made it known and
the same power will be exerted in our behalf

high home.speak the word, and 1t shall be as he
says.

Nastiness in the Dairy.

A great deal has been said about
cleanliness in the dairy, but the sub
ject of nastiness has been overlooked,
except as incidentally connected with
the subject of cleanliness. Now, we
suppose, everybody means to be clean,
and everyone thinks he or she is clean.
Every thing appears clean to some
people, even when purity of heart can
not be assigned as reason for this.
They have no sort of an idea of nasti-
ness. InOrder to teach them cleanliness
it is necessary to specify certain acts
to be avoided because they involve
nastiness. Allowing filth to get into
the pail. milking in foul atmosphere,
washing the hands and the cows teats
in the milk, and sundry other things
which may be seen by any one who
visits dairies at milking time and keeps
his eyes open. are acts of cOnsummate
nastiness. Using milk in which rest
less COW has put her nasty foot. or
sending it to the cheese or butter fac
tory, or peddling il out to village or
city patrons. is cOnsummate nastiness.
and is no less Tepreheusible because
the consumer of the product knows
nothing about it. No honest man, to
say nothing of one with keen sense
of what is clean and what is unclean
would be guilty of such a vile trick.
lie has not the excuse OF the abused
hotel waiter who, when told that it
was remarkable that he could hold his
temper so well when assaulted by the
abusive tongue of an ungentlemanly
guest, replied: ''Ohi l got even with
him; l spit in his soup" The nasty
dairyman does worse than spit in the
milk of the public. and he has not even
the excuse of reyenge.-Er.

Over Production not Probable.

There is one view of the case that is
not taken by those who prophesy an
overproductiOn because of the increase
in creameries. That view is that an
increase of creameries does not mean
an increase of cows, at the present at
least. If every man in the United
States should go into dairylng next
week, it would not add single COW to
the number we already have until two
years hence, and then only at a very
limited ratio. The increase of cows in
Wisconsin from 1870 to 1880 was only
.515 per cent. annually. The true office
of the creamery in every community
is to take the milk of the COW that now
is, and save it from making ten cent
butter. 1t also relieves the over
worked farmers wife from a deal of
labor and care and puts more money,
as rule, into the farmers pocket than
he would receive if he handled his
milk himself.-[ HOard's Dairyman.

A Sermon on Kline.

''And the lean and the ill-favored kline did
eat up the first seven fat kline; and when they
had eaten them up, ii could not be known that
they had eaten them; but they still ill fay-
ored rs at the beginning. So Iawoke.' Genesis
ALI:2u, n.
These, friends were the words of
King Pharaoh more than thirty.six
centuries ago and in considering this
text we wish if you please to call es-
pecial attention to the last three words
so l awoke." 1t seems that Pharaoh
saw fourteen cows, seven of them ate
up the other seven and were no better
off. Do you wonder that Pharaoh
awoke! Was it not time for him to
awake! You will all agree that it GER
tainly was time to wake up and see
about it and yet there is more than one
herd of cows in st. Croix and Pierce
counties in this year A. ID. 1887 where
the poor cows are eating up the good
ones and their owners do not wake up
and see about it. Let us suppose for
example that Mr.. a. has ten cows and
that it costs him twenty dollars each
to care for and feed them one year.
Now four of those cows furnish him
ten dollars worth of milk, two of them
twenty dollars worth, and four of them
thirty dollars worth. 1t doesn't take
a very long head, does it, to figure out
the fact that the poor kline ate up the
good kline. or all there was desirable OF
them, viz, the profits?
Pharaoh however had one advantage
over us, for he saw the situation plain
ly while he was still asleep and then
had only to wake up while we must
first wake up, then go to work. and
after that we will begin to see. what
Pharaoh saw and to recognize plainly
which cows do this ito us) Improbable
kind of eating. Having got wide
awake enough to see this much, the
probabilities are we will not sleep I'M
til we have fourteen cows not one of
which is earning less than her board.

1t is not at all probable that the

the winter the creamery will run
twelve months in the year and the pro-

Skim Milk as Eond.

Prof. James Long says in regard to
skim milk as food in England that
we get the same quantity of food in
skim milk for 634 d. ia cents that is
obtained in beef for half a crown go
cents) while beef is comparatively
higher in England than here, and
therefore there may not be the same
relative difference in the cost of skim
milk and beef here. Still at the ex-
listing prices skim milk is far cheaper
food than meat and would to advantage
replace much of it in our diet. The
change would no doubt be beneficial to
health, for as a nation we eat altogeth-
er too much meat.
